Diddy Prosecutors Disclose Alleged Victims’ Name To Rapper’s Legal Team

Federal prosecutors have been compelled to reveal the names of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ alleged victims to the rapper’s legal team.

The legal team had sought the names in a motion filed on January 6 ahead of the music mogul’s sex crimes trial, slated for later this year.

The motion was recently granted by the presiding judge, although it came with the caveat that the names would only be disclosed to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ attorneys.

Months after Diddy’s lawyers filed a motion to get the names of the rapper’s accusers, federal prosecutors have been ordered to release the information.

According to TMZ, the names Diddy’s attorneys sought were the ones listed in the indictment brought against the music mogul in September 2024.

Although it was already clear that Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie was one of the victims in question, the rest of the names were anonymous to the rapper and his attorneys.

They were only referred to as Victim 1, Victim 2, and Victim 3, with Cassie being noted as Victim 1, seemingly due to her assault video being a key piece of evidence in the upcoming trial.

Despite the motion being granted, the names will remain anonymous to the public for now due to the judge’s order stating that the women’s identities are being disclosed “under an Attorney’s Eyes Only designation.”

As such, any full disclosure of the names will likely happen during Diddy’s trial, slated for later this year.

Ahead of the trial, Diddy’s lawyers have made moves to discredit the viral Cassie assault video released by CNN.

Previously, they argued that federal prosecutors presented an edited version of the video to negatively influence one of Diddy’s bail hearings.

At the time, they claimed that the alleged altered footage exaggerated Diddy’s perceived threat. They also said that the altercation was simply a “sad glimpse into a decade-long consensual relationship” and described it as just a “domestic dispute.”

More recently, the attorneys wrote a letter to the court in which they claimed that CNN destroyed the original footage.

They also accused the news outlet of uploading an altered one whose “sequence” and “speed” had been changed.

“As a result, the CNN videos do not fairly and accurately depict the events in question.” the letter further read, per TMZ.

Following the claims of the assault video being doctored, Cassie’s lawyer, Douglas Wigdor, slammed the allegations.

He described them as a “disingenuous argument” from Diddy’s legal team and went on to say that any motion to exclude the video from the upcoming trial would fail.

“I am confident that the video fairly and accurately represents what happened, will be admitted into evidence,” he said.

The attorney also predicted that Diddy “will be held accountable for his depravity,” seemingly referencing the charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

The scenes from the viral video showed a vicious Diddy violently attacking Cassie after she tried to leave the hotel room they were lodged in.

The incident began with a partially dressed Diddy chasing after Cassie as she hurried toward the hotel elevator.

Upon catching up to her, the music mogul grabbed her roughly by the neck and forcefully shoved her to the ground, several feet away from the elevator.

He then delivered a brutal kick to her body before quickly gathering her belongings.

In a continued display of aggression, Diddy kicked Cassie again and dragged her back down the hallway by her hoodie to their hotel room. Later, he was seen angrily throwing a vase in her direction while seated in a chair.

Despite the lawsuit being expected to serve as key evidence in Diddy’s upcoming trial, no official charges of assault were brought against him, as the statute of limitations for reporting such an incident has since elapsed.

However, Cassie did bring a civil suit against Diddy, which was later settled for an undisclosed sum.

Diddy attended a court session last Friday to face fresh allegations from three victims that he sexually abused them between 2004 to 2024.

Several of his family members appeared in court to support him, and when the hearing was done, he blew a two-handed kiss in their direction.

During his court appearance, the rapper reportedly sported a puffy look that raised eyebrows about his well-being.

According to the New York Post, Diddy appeared “bloated” and “old” in his tan prison jumpsuit, sporting gray hair and a gray chinstrap beard.

CBS reporter Alice Gainer also noted the rapper’s aged appearance, writing on X, “Combs walked into courtroom sporting grey hair and a grey beard…”

It comes as no surprise, as Diddy has been locked behind bars at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn since his September arrest.
